Alamo told me "We will have to wait and see how consistent the threads are from action to action before we will know." When I asked if they were going to be offering pre fits
On Tuesday, I inquired on their Facebook page and I think it was Chase that said:
Lox Thomson I saw that you posted a video and I was disappointed in not seeing Vectors being boxed up and shipped

Curtis Custom Well... you won’t be disappointed long. (Shipping end of the week)

A new company called Paradigm Gunworx will be offering prefits. Made to order. Just waiting on a Vector to show up so we can verify some measurements.
Look us up on Facebook or shoot me a message here.

Nope.
Curtis vector for the win!
I might drop out of waiting for my vector. Days seem to keep getting pushed back more and more.
They should start shipping this week
Paradigm Gunworx is offering a preorder for prefit barrels.
It’s convent if you want multiple caliber, don’t want to wait for your vector to arrive then send it off to have a barrel fitted, and keep waiting. This allows you to have a barrel ready to go ASAP.
Most smith’s charge around ~825$ give or take depending on who (~350$ ish for the blank, ~425$ Ish for chambering and threading). I think $750 is a solid price with the blank of your choice and minimal turn around time.
until you compare to PVA
Right, and that makes it 775 for most smiths on your specific action.
Granted, hopefully these will be cut so repeatable it won't matter. I understand the quick setup and having a lot of calibers ASAP that makes sense for sure . Just in general when i think of prefits you are giving up some perfection for a more cost effective option.
I agree, I like the look of the CC bottom metal a lot but at this point I'm gun shy
These barrels will be shouldered barrels with correct headspace, no barrel nut needed. You’re comparing apples to oranges. Im assuming, otherwise I didn’t see (and very well may have overlooked) any shouldered prefits.
Pretty sure PVA makes shouldered prefits...
This thread is an example why I won't tie money up in anything gun related... I am buying from the PX or from a stocking dealer. We change our minds on a monthly basis, and have way too much cash tied up in the sport to be blue balled for half a year. Curtis ain't the only one doing it, just hate how it is so standard in this industry.
I'm pretty sure josh will be selling prefits for the vector as well, just needs to get his hands on 1??
Give it a few weeks. I hear he has one lined up
can't wait
I know it’s not in a stock or anything but how’s initial bolt lift feeling?
I only have 1speed??
there are better options. give me a month or two
Care to explain more?
When assessing bolt lift, I would recommend to anybody to throw a trigger in to drop the firing pin to feel the actual bolt lift. I bought an axiom after just feeling a guys action at a match when he let me mess w/ it with no live rounds, and i did not pull the trigger during that time. It's the same bolt in the vector, and the same physics. Running the bolt up feels great, but it's a different story once you actually pull the trigger to drop the firing pin. Bolt lift is heavier in a 60 degree action... Even with special roller bearings.
Yes it is smooth and robust, but it is also a three lug action and the cocking ramp angle is steep. But I agree with the solid, sturdy, smooth nature of the axiom - which is the same essential parts compared to the vector. I just had to focus on downward scope pressure and trying to snap the bolt up to mitigate the minor canting that would ensue when I ran the axiom.

I have not been notified if mine shipped or not. Im in afghanistan so I won't see mine until next February.
Received my vector. I am going to have my wife send my parts into pva to get a barrel spun up and help contribute my actions specs so they can start making prefits. To bad i will not be able to even see the action or my built rifle until next february at earliest. Wish i could have it shipped to afghanistan haha
Played with Chase's this weekend. Man is it solid. Smooth. Hard to get to bind. Nice bolt lift.
Huh????
Integrated quick change barrels
Got mine about 2 weeks ago. Super smooth, cycled it a few hundred times already. Lift is smooth and not bad at all. Lighter than my AXMC. Put the cadex trigger on it. Absolutely love it. I’ll post some pics tonight.
What is the role of the set screws? Is there something else that holds the barrel in position?
